To me, it looked like she went through them which would imply that object are physical while undergoing lightspeed travel which would break the universe. If you want to be more conservative and say that she warped into them and objects are only physical coming out of light speed, it would still break the universe.

Even if you say that technology wasn't available decades earlier with the original Death Stars, in that very conflict, it seems like they could have done the same thing with their support ships and saved tons of lives, or done the same thing at the beginning of the movie with the bombers and saved tons of lives....

Regardless, its going to make every future Star Wars space battle VERY interesting. Will they use this strategy constantly going forward? My guess is they just completely ignore it going forward, with people just yelling "send an x wing through light speed through it!" over and over in the audience. 

Honestly, that would be an interesting direction to take (though I'm basically 100% sure they won't). I've been wanting them to introduce some grey morality for a while and basically making the Resistance WWII-era Japan would be an interesting way to do that.
